Zimbabwe Crisis: Just where is Robert Mugabe right now?

The chaotic non-coup has placed the Mugabes in several different African locations

PRETORIA, SOUTH AFRICA - APRIL 8: President Robert Mugabe during a media briefing on April 8, 2015

With a great upheaval in power, comes great confusion. As it stands, Old Bob has been all but unseated from his role as president. But where is Robert Mugabe right now?

His fateful decision to sack former Vice President Emmerson Mnangagwa last week has royally backfired. By firing the man standing in the way of Grace Mugabe’s ascent to the Presidency, Robert hasn’t handed power to his wife. He’s got them both exiled. Politically, anyway.

Where is Grace Mugabe?

Now this picked up pace fiercely this morning. We’ve already had one game of “Where’s Grace” this year, after she went into hiding following her attack on Gabrielle Engels.

Early reports suggested that Robert Mugabe was negotiating her exit from the country as a deal-maker in his resignation. Through the day, she has been placed as far away as Namibia, whereas Singapore was also listed a potential escape route for the first lady. She has since been declared as being alongside Bob in Harare

Namibia has yet to confirm or deny the reports that Zimbabwe’s first lady Grace Mugabe has fled to the country.

Where will the Mugabes go?

Singapore would still be a viable option for the pair. Robert Mugabe has been travelling there for years to receive top medical care. It’s not thought that the pair will stay in Zimbabwe, and their route to South Africa has become impeded. Right now, it’s up in the air.
